摘要
越来越多的研究证明,在乳腺肿瘤中存在一小部分具有自我更新和分化能力的细胞,称之为乳腺肿瘤干细胞,它们在乳腺肿瘤的发生发展和迁移中起到关键作用.乳腺肿瘤干细胞的特性受到一系列细胞内、外因子的调控,包括重要的信号通路、转录因子、非编码RNA和细胞因子,如Hedgehog,Wnt,Notch,Bmi-1,microRNA93,microRNA100和IL6等,均在调控乳腺肿瘤干细胞中起重要作用.另外,肿瘤微环境中的非肿瘤细胞和非细胞成分也是调控乳腺肿瘤干细胞的一个重要因素,如间充质干细胞、巨噬细胞以及细胞因子等.由于乳腺肿瘤干细胞对传统放化疗的不敏感性,结合靶向乳腺肿瘤干细胞的治疗才能更有效地消灭肿瘤.本文就关于乳腺肿瘤干细胞的调控研究及靶向乳腺肿瘤干细胞治疗进行简要综述.
Many studies have shown that a small fraction of cells inside breast tumors possess the ability of self-renewal and differentiation;these cells are called breast cancer stem cells(BCSCs) and play a vital role in tumor progression and metastasis.The characteristics of BCSCs are regulated by multiple intracellular and extracellular factors,including some important signaling pathways(e.g.,sonic hedgehog,Wnt,and Notch),transcription factors(e.g.,Bmi-1),noncoding RNAs(e.g.,miR-93 and miR-100),and cytokines(e.g.,interleukin-6).In addition,the tumor microenvironment,including nonrumor cells(e.g.,mesenchymal stem cells and macrophages) and noncellular components(e.g.,cytokines),is also a key factor regulating BCSCs.Because BCSCs are resistant to conventional therapies,these therapies may be more efficacious when used in combination with BCSC-targeted therapies.In this review,we focus on recent research progress regarding the regulation of BCSCs and BCSC-targeted therapies.
